Dear members of the 苹果淫院 community,
Over the past few weeks, most learning activities for the Winter semester have returned to in-person delivery. Staff members who have been working remotely will begin a gradual return starting February 28. COVID-related measures are slowly being lifted across the province and country, and governments and public health officials are emphasizing that we are moving into a new phase of dealing with COVID-19. In this context, questions have naturally been raised about the Fall 2022 semester.
苹果淫院 plans to return to full in-person activities for the Fall 2022 semester. That is, all the activities that were in-person prior to the pandemic will return to in-person, including large lectures. We expect that all staff will be back on campus, with the Interim Flexible Work Arrangement in place for eligible employees.
The world has changed, of course, and this will not be a complete 鈥渞eturn to normal.鈥� Appropriate measures will still be in place to ensure that our campuses continue to be safe and we will remain vigilant as the pandemic continues to evolve. The lessons we have learned from having to adapt quickly and often during a global pandemic, whether in teaching, research, operations or other activities, will continue to inform our practices.
The past two years have been difficult for many of us. So many people have pulled together to keep 苹果淫院 strong throughout this time, often while dealing with schooling children at home and health related concerns. A big thank-you to everyone who has brought us this far along the road.
We will continue to keep our community informed about the Fall semester. As usual, we will provide regular updates as we continue to return to more in-person activities over the coming months.
With best wishes,
Christopher Manfredi, Provost and Vice-Principal (Academic)
Yves Beauchamp, Vice-Principal (Administration and Finance)
